Professional Newborn Photographer
Hey there, Mama-to-be!
Big congrats on the upcoming addition to your family! Can you believe how fast time flies? Before you know it, your little one will be here, and those precious newborn moments will fly by even faster. That's why I'm here to chat about something super special: booking me as your newborn photographer. Trust me, I know those first few weeks can be a blur of diapers and feedings (I'm a mom of 4!), but having a professional capture those sweet, sleepy moments is like freezing time in the most beautiful way possible. You'll want to hold onto every memory, from those teeny-tiny fingers to those adorable little yawns. So, why not ensure you have stunning photos to look back on forever? It's a decision you won't regret, promise!
Best of all, my studio is the perfect place to capture all of those precious details. I have all the props, wraps, outfits, and baby supplies necessary to keep you and your baby comfortable during the session. If you want to see it first hand, schedule a free consultation to visit the studio to learn more. Use the form below, and I'll contact you to schedule a time.

What to Expect with IJ Photo
Step 1: Once you've booked ij Photo as your newborn photographer, you'll be asked to sign a contract. Please review this document completely since it has important information about your session. You'll also need to pay and choose a preferred date for your session. This date will likely change depending on when your baby is born.
Step 2: Since it's hard to predict when your baby will be born, I hold space for you around your due date. Once your baby is born, please get in touch with me within 48 hours to confirm or adjust your appointment. Please note that all newborn photography sessions are booked in the studio, and plan accordingly. It's best to do your newborn session when your baby is between 5 and 21 days old whenever possible. If your baby is slightly older, that's okay; I will make accommodations to fit your child's needs. Please note that not all poses or outfits will work as your baby ages, and older babies are more alert and have different needs. To get photos that match the images seen in the portfolio, please do your best to schedule as early as possible.
Step 3 An in-person or Zoom sales meeting will be scheduled for you to place your order. During this meeting, you'll be able to see samples of wall art, albums, and all print options.
Step 4: Your purchased products will be mailed directly to you so you can enjoy your photos for a lifetime!

About Your Photographer
Hello! I'm Irene Jones, owner of IJ Photo.
I love being the answer to the question where's a maternity photographer near me?
My experience enables my clients and their families to feel natural in front of the camera. They know that I can capture everyone at their best.
I love working with repeat clients at my Everett studio or on location to capture each new stage of life. In addition to maternity photography, I am also a newborn photographer.
Beyond my photography work, I love the PNW, spending time with my 4 kids, reading, and watching movies. Storytelling and family are a big part of who I am.
I believe in inclusivity and want to work with people from all walks of life. I am excited to work with LGBTQIA+ individuals and people of all nationalities, races, religious beliefs, and backgrounds. I welcome your unique perspective and can't wait to hear your story.
- Where are you located?
-
IJ Photo studio is located at 2815 Baker Ave Suite 205, Everett WA 98201. Parking is available in front of the main entrance and across the street in the gravel lot.
- Do you shoot on location?
-
Due to the highly demanding nature of a newborn session, they can only be done in the studio. Props, backgrounds, baby attire, and swaddles are provided. All you need to bring is your little one!
- When should I book my newborn session?
-
It's best to book your newborn sessions several months in advance. The actual session booking will depend on your due date and delivery. We will schedule your session approximately two weeks after your due date. Please reach out 48 hours after delivery to confirm your baby's arrival and check to see if we need to make adjustments to the scheduled session. All newborn sessions are scheduled for the morning.
- Do you offer any discounts?
-
Yes! Collections include discounts on wall art and soft proofs. Plus, a digital copy of your image is included for free when you purchase a print. Inquire for more information.
- Do you also do maternity photos?
-
Yes! Check out the Maternity and Newborn Bundle for more information.
- What if my baby arrives early?
-
Please reach out within 48 hours of your baby's arrival. I can adjust the schedule to fit you in as needed.
- What if my baby is older than 3 weeks?
-
We can still do a session if your baby is older than the recommended 21 days. Your session will be modified to fit your child's quickly changing needs. Most photos will either be with parent(s) or swaddled. For best results, we recommend doing your session in the first 2-4 weeks of life.
- How long does it take to get to see my photos?
-
Most galleries are ready in 10-14 days.
- How will I view my photos?
-
An ordering appointment will be scheduled for you to review your photos and place your order. Scheduling will happen after your session is over and it generally takes 1-2 weeks for your photos to be ready.
- What is a soft proof set?
-
A soft proof set is the collection of all images from your session. For a newborn session, this usually consists of 30 or more photos. Each image is cropped and edited for color and contrast. No retouching of skin or backgrounds is done. Images that are selected have these retouching steps, as well as others, added to complete the images. If you choose, you can purchase a soft-proof set without retouching. This is a great option for anyone who wants all of the photos and prefers just digital files instead of prints. The VIP package includes a soft proof set automatically.
